I remember Paul way back at Roadway, even worked with him at Ashland. I recall him not really worrying about what people thought of him. May the Lord bring you consolation in the time of your bereavement.

Kathleen Jensen

I love you more than life itself and do not know how to go on without you. You are my everything, me and the boys miss you so much. You are a wonderful, loving, generous husband with a heart of gold. I can't believe or accept that I lost my husband at the age of 50. It is so unfair we had a life time to spend together and make more memories. Rest in peace my love I will love you forever. Until we meet again..
Love your baby.. Kathy

We became friends with Paul at HobbyTown in Orland Park over the past year. He was always pleasant, polite and excited whenever he visited our store. He was like a kid in a candy store whenever he visited. We hope that our store brought a diversion to everyday life. We were shocked to hear of his passing. We will miss his enthusiasm and excitement at the store!
